What is the story about?
New Delhi-headquartered Filatex India, a manufacturer of synthetic filament yarns, expects to report ₹4,600-4,700 crore in revenue in the current financial year 2026-27 (FY27), with profit likely to grow by around 30% as new capacity additions become operational in the coming months.
Madhusudhan Bhageria, Managing Director of Filatex India, said the company's expansion projects, seasonal demand and its ability to pass on higher raw material costs should support growth through the financial year.
Bhageria said the company expects demand to remain healthy until at least March, driven by the winter season and the implementation of free trade agreements.
Capacity additions at its existing plant will be commissioned in phases during September and October, while its new Ecosys facility is expected to become operational by the end of October, although commercial stabilisation could take another four to five months.
"We should be able to do around ₹4,600-4,700 crore because we also have some plans of expansion," he said.
Filatex India has a market capitalisation of ₹3,257.17 crore, while its shares have gained more than 30% over the past year.
The company expects crude oil volatility to have only a temporary impact on profitability as higher raw material costs are passed on to customers within a short period.
"We are also able to pass it on to our customers in a gap of 10 to 15 days, so it doesn't affect us in the long run," Bhageria said.
He added that the company has already passed on most of the recent increase in input costs and does not expect demand to weaken because of price hikes.
Filatex has lined up nearly ₹700 crore of capital expenditure across multiple projects. The expansion will be funded through a mix of debt and internal accruals, with around ₹140 crore of debt at Filatex India and ₹200 crore at Ecosys.
Bhageria said the Ecosys business is expected to deliver EBITDA margins of more than 30% once it reaches full capacity.
